Swell Summary
Surf along north and west facing shores has filled in overnight as a mixed- period northwest swell continues to bring elevated surf to exposed shores. This swell will hold through the day then gradually diminish as it becomes increasingly north Wednesday. Otherwise, a combination of southeast and southwest swells will support small to moderate surf along south facing shores the next couple of days. Surf along east facing shores will remain very small, then gradually trend up as the northeast trade winds increase later in the week.
